In short: The Trooper is a melee fighter of the Kamael race who hits hard and moves fast, sustaining its own damage with a collection of "soul" buffs. It's perfect for anyone who likes to dive into the fight, feel every blow land, and take care of themselves without depending on another player.

Picture a winged soldier trading blows with its own hands, wrapped in spiritual energy. The Trooper doesn't wait around: it charges in, gets close to the enemy, and pours out damage while its auras make it faster and tougher.

For a beginner, it's a satisfying class to play because you feel your character growing stronger with every level, and almost everything it needs to survive is right there in its own hands.

The Trooper is the first big step of the Kamael warrior. The evolution line goes like this: Jin Kamael Soldier (Starter) → Trooper (1st Class). In other words, you start as a rookie soldier and, when you become a Trooper, you gain the kit of abilities that defines the class's style.

Strengths

Sky-high Strength (STR 41, top 98%): STR is the attribute that increases physical damage. The Trooper has one of the highest values in the game, so every melee blow hits much harder than usual.
Excellent Dexterity (DEX 35, top 96%): DEX improves accuracy and critical hit chance. In practice, you miss fewer attacks and land more of those extra-damage strikes.
High movement speed (140, top 87%): running fast seems like a small detail, but it changes everything: you reach the enemy first, escape when you need to, and farm faster because you spend less time walking.
Self-support with soul buffs: the Trooper carries buffs that raise attack speed, magic defense, and max HP, and even recover HP and MP. This makes it independent, with no need for a support player at its side to perform well.
Constant melee pressure: combining high STR, high DEX, and speed, the Trooper is a class that sticks to its target and gives no rest, ideal for taking down monsters one after another.

Weaknesses

Low mana (MP among the lowest in the game): its buffs and skills consume MP and it runs out fast. Tip: keep MP potions on auto-use and activate the mana-recharge skill whenever you get a break.
Modest health (low HP for a melee class): since it fights right up against the enemy but doesn't have a huge HP pool, it takes risks against large groups. Tip: turn on HP recovery, keep the max-HP buff up, and avoid pulling too many monsters at once.
Low toughness (CON 27): CON is the attribute that raises health and resistance. With it being low, the Trooper has to make up for it with good buffs and armor. Tip: prioritize keeping your gear updated so you don't end up fragile.
Depends on keeping buffs running: without the soul auras active, it loses a big chunk of its power. Tip: make a habit of refreshing buffs as soon as you enter a new farming zone.

Class-defining skills

Soul Smash — a strong physical strike (the foundation of your melee damage). It's the skill you'll use to open and close fights against tougher enemies.
Soul Haste — a buff that increases attack speed, meaning you land more blows per second. Always keep it on while farming.
Soul Wind Walk — a buff that increases movement speed. Useful for reaching targets quickly and repositioning in fights.
Recover HP — a heal over time (regenerates your health bit by bit). Activate it when you take damage so you don't rely on potions alone.
Recover MP — a mana recharge over time (returns MP bit by bit). Essential for a class that struggles with low mana.
Soul Roar — a buff that increases max HP. It helps you absorb more damage, making up for the class's naturally low HP.
Increase Power — a special buff that boosts your attack power. Turn it on before the heavier fights to hit even harder.
Soul Magic Barrier — a buff that increases magic defense. Important against monsters and bosses that use magic.
Absorb Light Souls — charges "souls" that fuel other abilities. Use it to stockpile that resource and strengthen your kit in combat.

Attributes: what to prioritize

The Trooper is pure melee, so the focus is physical damage, accuracy, and survivability. The class is already born strong in STR and DEX, and your job is to keep the rest from dropping too much.

STR (Strength): your number-one priority — it's what makes your blows hurt.
DEX (Dexterity): improves accuracy and crit; keeps your damage steady and reliable.
CON (Constitution): gives health and resistance; bolster it so you're not too fragile in melee.
MEN (Mentality): helps with your MP weak spot; a little more keeps your buffs going longer.

Recommended gear

Since the Trooper fights with its own hands, look for the weapon matching the class's combat type (fist / hand-blade style) and always keep it the best you can get. The difference between a good weapon and a weak one is huge for your damage.

For armor, prefer light protection, which suits the class's speed and dexterity without slowing you down. The first thing to upgrade is always the weapon; then comes the armor, and finally accessories that boost HP and attributes.

Beginner step-by-step

Create the character: choose the Kamael race and start as the initial soldier. This is where your future Trooper is born.
Do the first quests of the starting area: they teach you the basics, give you starting gear, and a good dose of experience to get going.
Turn on auto-hunt: this is the feature where your character farms on its own, attacking monsters of your level while you just follow along. It's the most practical way to level up in Essence.
Follow the profession path: you go from the starter soldier to Trooper (1st Class) and, further on, keep evolving. Each change unlocks new skills and more power — keep an eye on the right level to advance.
Prioritize the right skills and buffs: turn on Soul Haste and Soul Wind Walk to farm faster, use Soul Smash on tough targets, and keep Recover HP and Recover MP running so you don't stop.
Get Adena and L-Coin: auto-hunt already gathers Adena (the in-game currency) over time; also use daily missions to stack up L-Coin and buy upgrades.
Keep weapon and armor updated: whenever you have resources, swap up to better gear. A strong character is a character with up-to-date gear.

Where to farm

Auto-hunt on monsters of your level: leave your character farming on enemies that match your level to gain XP safely and steadily.
Move up to harder zones as you evolve: as you get stronger, move to areas with higher monsters, where the experience and drops are worth more.
Form a party for raids and bosses: bosses give big rewards, but ask for help — in a group the Trooper performs far better and takes less risk.
Use the Season Pass and daily missions: they're steady sources of rewards that really speed up your progress.

Common beginner mistakes

Forgetting to refresh buffs: without the soul auras on, the Trooper loses power. Refresh them every time you enter a new farming zone.
Ignoring mana: since MP is low, neglecting it makes your skills stall mid-fight. Keep an MP potion and the recharge always active.
Pulling too many monsters: with modest HP, hugging a big group of enemies is a recipe for dying. Take it slow and respect the class's limit.
Leaving gear outdated: sticking with a weak weapon caps your damage. Upgrade whenever you can.

This is for you if…

You like straightforward melee combat: charging in, getting close, and feeling every blow is your thing.
You prefer being independent: a class that heals and buffs itself appeals to anyone who likes to play without depending on support.
You enjoy a fast pace: with high speed and constant attacks, the Trooper is dynamic and never stands still.
